Ficci earnings may soar past Rs 35 cr

THE FEDERATION of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (Ficci) expects to generate revenues in excess of Rs 35 crore from Aero India 2007 – the sixth edition of the international aerospace and defence exhibition. Considering that international aviation majors had to pay more than Rs 50 lakh to the organisers for setting up infrastructure facilities such as exhibition stalls and hospitality chalets alone, the revenue figure of Rs 35 crore appears to be a very conservative figure.
